AMERICAN LEAGUE ROUND-ROBIN
When the Reelin' in the Years League finished its retro run, I began looking at other non-stop opportunities for us to pursue. I've never played in any of the All-Time Greats leagues and I wonder if any other ATG rookies would care to join me in a new multi-season endeavor?
12-SEASON COMMITMENT
How about an American League round-robin tournament? (And yes, if we can get this dialed, then it should be followed in a few weeks with a National League iteration).
12 teams, as shown below.
We will use the ATG VI set in season 1 and switch to the ATG7 set in season 2.
Yes, to the DH option (for the AL).
$100 mil salary cap.
5-10-20% penalties for drops.
Standard game engine rules of 24-28 players.
Each manager rotates through all 12 teams once during the tournament.
Divisions randomized for each season.
Select your state lottery at signup; the first "daily 3" winners for the appropriate day will be used for division assignments.
Autodraft includes only players carded to your team; you choose the year of each player, if there are more than one available.
A player carded to more than one team in the league will only be available during the autodraft to the team for which he played the most games (e.g., Babe Ruth belongs to the Yankees in the autodraft).
Any non-drafted AL-carded player is available during the waivers period, as long as he has played for your team.
Trades are okay, as long as you only end up with AL-carded players who have played for your team.
Teams would be as follows:
1. Boston Red Sox
2. Chicago White Sox
3. Cleveland Indians
4. Detroit Tigers
5. [Older] New York Yankees, through 1945 [incl. Baltimore Orioles 1901-1902]
6. [Later] New York Yankees, 1946-to-date
7. Philadelphia - Kansas City - Oakland A's
8. St. Louis Browns - Baltimore Orioles [incl. Milwaukee Brewers, 1901]
9. Washington Senators, to 1960 - Minnesota Twins
10. Midwest Expansion: Kansas City Royals & Milwaukee Brewers, to 1997 [incl. Seattle Pilots, 1969]
11. West Coast Expansion: Los Angeles - California - Anaheim Angels & Seattle Mariners
12. Other Expansion: Washington Senators, 1961-1971 - Texas Rangers & Toronto Blue Jays & Tampa Bay Rays
Stadium selected can be any stadium used by your team in the proper time frame (except for Older Yankees, who have a very limited selection; they can also use Yankee Stadium '48)
Team names can be any variation on those actually used, whether formal or informal; e.g., Murderers' Row for older Yanks or Bronx Bombers for more recent ones.
